On June 11, Spokane protested to defend two young asylum seekers. A month later, 9 people who stood in public witness were arrested by federal agents. This is retaliation—meant to scare us into silence. We won’t back down.

Spokane rose up strong for Families First—demanding care, justice, and an end to billionaires’ tax breaks. From Medicaid cuts to ICE raids, we said NO. This is about every family’s future. United and unshaken. #FamiliesFirst

Congress just passed a $4.5T heist—ripping care from millions to fund tax breaks for the ultra-rich. On July 26, we rally in Spokane with SEIU at Cowley Park. Peaceful. Powerful. Together. Register here 👉🏽 buff.ly/X5CJ7DL #StopTheHeist #July26 #HealthcareNotHandouts
